The deference between a preteen and a tween:
Preteen: Someone between the ages of 10 and 13. Simple as that
Tween: Someone between the ages of 8 and 14/15, who in general:
Regularly watches disney channel
Need to follow the lastest trends
Almost exclusevely listens to pop
Omg Tpye LIK DIS !!! <3
THIS IS THE REGULAR FOR MOST, THEY MAY FOLLOW ALL OR JUST SOME
Not all people in this age group are tweens, and it is extremely insulting to call someone(especially 14 or 15 year old) a tween or preteen if/when they are
not.

is not even a real word.
If something is invented in an advertising executive's office, like the sounds that in the English language can sometimes be represented using the characters t-w-e-e-n or tween, it is not real; in this case not a real word.

8-14 year old's. Generally female. Trying desprately to be a teenager but still a child. Spends on average 1-2 billion dollars a year. A product of celebrity influences. Support celebrities such as Hilary Duff, Lindsey Lohan and Delta Goodrem.
Nearly all females in the tween age group. Use slang such as 'lyk' instead of 'like' 'h8' instead of 'hate', ect.

An age set overlapping preteens, 'tween 8 and 14. A tween desperately wants to be a teen, but isn't about to stop being a kid. May flirt one minute, but be embarrassed about it the next; usually prefers titillation by proxy.
When I was in 4th grade, several of us would gang up on a boy and girl and make them kiss each other for our titillation.
I was standing in line behind another teen, and the 10 year olds she was baby-sitting kept pushing her against men behind her to to get titillation by proxy. I made sure to stand behind her a lot that day.
Google "CSM Models" for an eye full of tweens getting titillation by proxy, flirting with the camera instead of a person.

term used by animators, particularly those who use that bloody picky and irritating program called Flash, to describe movement or transistion from some weird thing to another. Used in phrases such as 'motion tween' or 'shape tween'. Derived from the word 'between'.
